Bug#552757: debian-policy: all caps "must"



Jakub Wilk wrote:

"must" is a quite common word in the Debian Policy:

For consistency, I'd do s/MUST/must/.

But not automatically. On RFC usage "must" is different from "MUST", so
you SHOULD distinguish the normative "MUST" and with the non normative "must".

And BTW if we do such change, we SHOULD do also for the other
all-caps terms: MUST NOT, SHOULD, SHALL, ...).
